What a great town to set up the staging from. "Tombstone" was an awesome movie too.

They are merely undocumented border patrol agents.

Marilynn Slade, Tombstone's city clerk, said the more attention drawn to illegal immigration, the better. "The vast majority of the people feel that the feds should be dealing more aggressively with the problem," she said. "There's a huge, huge cry down here."That "cry" can be heard all over California and I'll wager other states as well.

Giant speakers facing Mexico playing Halloween spooky sounds full blast.
Might make them turn and run with that alone.

Cochise County Sheriff Larry Dever said he fears immigrant smugglers might open fire on the volunteers.
"I wouldn't anticipate that people of that persuasion would act or react any differently to anybody, citizen or law enforcement alike, if they were confronted and felt like their cargo was in jeopardy," he said.
What irks me is the business as usual approach by the "professionals".

Well, the mayor and city clerk are happy the MMP will be there.
Looks like only the MSM and ACLU are upset.

The Minutemen are just doing what no branch of the Federal Government is willing to do.
President Bush should suggest legislation to give them all a "Guest" Border Patrol Agent permit.

I wouldn't care if they did use force against the illegals. This problem needs to be stopped no matter what. Some people don't seem to understand how dangerous this problem is to our nation. It's the illegals breaking the law, not the minutemen. Why can't some of these people see that? These types of projects need to happen all along our southern border. Maybe our government will start doing their job if this starts happening more often. If it comes to violence I just hope that the illegals are on the losing side. If our government won't enforce the laws then people have the right to do it at all cost.

The're just doing the work that our border patrol agents are not willing to do.

They are domestic terrorists that represent a danger to the country and could promote a major border conflict that will have serious ramifications and consequences," said Armando Navarro, a University of California-Riverside political science professor.
Organizers of the Minuteman Project should take this fruitcake to civil court for slander!
To: thorshammer
Michael Nicley, chief of the U.S. Border Patrol's Tucson sector, said the volunteers are "not the kind of help the Border Patrol is asking for."
Tough shet.
If Bush would enforce the law, none of this would be necessary.

Good luck guys. Give the rest of us a shout if you get into any trouble. I may not have been able to join you, but I'll sure as hell make time if MS-13 starts a fight.

"They are domestic terrorists that represent a danger to the country and could promote a major border conflict that will have serious ramifications and consequences," said Armando Navarro, a University of California-Riverside political science professor and coordinator of the National Alliance for Human Rights, made up mostly of Hispanic activists. Hispanica Uber Alles, eh Armando? La Raza much, Mr. Navarro?
"They are domestic terrorists that represent a danger to the country and could promote a major border conflict that will have serious ramifications and consequences," said spodefly, an American citizen speaking of the millions of illegal aliens disregarding American laws, burdening law-abiding taxpayers with their social costs, and enabling the multi-billion dollar industries of people smuggling, document forgery, and identity theft.
